I want to see everything about that gambling sites, from their terms and conditions up to the experience playing on that site especially their fairness. I know this is a huge work but if you do really want to publish a honest review, then you must know the experience first.

Whenever a new gambling site comes out, I always look for the reviews of the users because by that you can know if the game site is good, if its safe to play and everything. So having an honest review site is everything.

[alani123]

I'd mostly be interested to see how fair the site is, if we have to do with chance-based games that is.
For example, there are new sites launching that claim to be provably fair, but in reality, unless you check every bet, they don't actually verify the bets. 999dice for example has such shady practices. Videos on how to verify bets from each site are also nice because there are differences in each site.

Now in terms of every other type of site, I think talking about the experience overall is nice. This includes house edge, bonuses, community events, chat participation etc. Also details like KYC requirements for example are important for crypto gamblers.

[Becky666]

As previous replies, Fairless should be the door step to any serious online gambling casinos, whenever I want to gamble; the first thing I check in their reviews are their Fairless to the house. This reviews in terms of negative had made many casinos dropped down drastically because of their hidden dubious acts to cheat on gamblers. After this: their support service. They should have a support that's quick to respond to issues from gamblers. The last is: their bonuses for new and old gamblers in their platform.

[Fundamentals Of]

I guess most of the things I would want to know of a gambling site are included in the pros and cons.

But more than the bulleted pros and cons, I also want to read the actual shared experience of the user. Normally, pros and cons are not well explained that they seem to just generalize things without really reviewing the site based on experience. One or two words for the pro or con and then followed by a short phrase describing it is really not enough.

[Yaunfitda]

Of course the number one criteria is that you should be unbiased. Because there is a practice that reviews  are created to make the sites looks good because they have been the websites to make a favorable reviews on them. Short of glorifying that websites and then those who read it believed that play in that casino and then get trap or being scam. And we need the review sites to keep updating because we all know that some sites will start to be so called 'provably fair', but later some gamblers are complaining that it is not.

[panjul07]

Nothing except an honest review based on real experience from the owner of the review site while playing on the reviewed site.
Most of review sites provides so many reviewed sites but I doubt the reviews are based on their own experience.
Even worst, there are many paid review sites where the owner of the review sites get some bucks from the casino to give a good review.
What I have never seen on review site is video when the reviewer play on the reviewed site.
So if you are going to have a review site, better to provide an honest review and video when your test/try the casino would be great addition.

I agree, one of the problems with review sites of all kinds is that at the beginning they are honest about their reviews but as soon as they become big enough to become influential they change their policy and instead become nothing more but ads for the highest bidder and this is dishonest, it is because of this many people do not really use those sites anymore as they do not trust in them, so if anyone is going through the trouble of creating yet another website like this then they must make being unbiased as one of their top priorities.

[ryzaadit]

To be honest.

In my own opinion, most gambling site reviews only repeating the same information from the main resource casino. Most of the people always visiting the casino trying directly rather seeing a review about the casino. They only want to know did the casino is a scam or not, and they will try to search a scam website information on google about the casino.

[batang_bitcoin]

Genuine and unique reviews that we probably never read from another casino website reviewer. Being fair is going to be your foundation if you are starting out.
This will make your site credible not just as your start but in the long run and if you managed to maintain it.

Thank you

I guess you can't really rely on the reviews of the website that is in the website itself since some of it is already manipulated especially if it is a scam casino or scam websites.

Maybe you could just go for some gambling websites here in the forum that is already trusted, we already have list of scam casino here in the forum that came from the reviews here in the forum.

What do you want to see in a gambling site review?

While researching online gambling services, the most important factors that attract my attention and are effective in my search for membership are fast and easy withdrawals, the license that the service is using, the variety of payment methods and the variety of games. Therefore, when I am going to read a review article about online gambling services, I pay attention to include such details first. In addition, it is very important for me to provide brief information about the service under review and to share statistics and information about the past, if not a new service.

What will you find truly useful in such a review?

In order to be able to decide that the investigation is correct, I have to be convinced that the investigation has been done objectively. Also, in addition to this situation I mentioned, it is very important for me to believe that the sources of the data presented in the review are accurate and reliable.

[Ryker1]

Well, well, well. On my own, I like those reviews that purely organic and should not be manipulated. It should be on that given to the honest players who really experienced circumstances in gambling sites they choose to gamble with. We saw different campaigns upon giving your honest review and paid pennies to participants. Various techniques just to gained fake reviews as what like Trustpilot review which is I don't trust and other readers either.
Indeed, this is very useful that gives to people who use a good insight of what will potentially happen in the future.
Just think about this, when you purchase products in online merchants, you should check first the review before you will put the item into your cart to order.

[RapTarX]

Honesty.
Most of the review sites put sponsored review which is why they never share everything in details and sometimes highlights scam casino as well. Besides such honesty, I would love to see each of the casino sites reputation on different platform; bitcointalk for instance.

Thank you

-Updated ones
-Not biased or a paid one
-Real experience reviews

These are common points that are really wanted but generally and honestly speaking which review sites arent really that getting that
much attention  because people will simply make out their own search on which one is currently reputable or known.

[bitbunnny]

For me it's very important to see reviews about safety and security, legitimacy and customers support. Also, KYC requirements and procedure.
I'd also like to see something about general experience of users then bonuses, available payment methods, currencies accepted and of course variety of games that are offered. It's preferable is reviews could be checked, so that I know that they arw real gamblers experiences, not faked ones.

[KTChampions]

If this site contains a dice game, then I want to see full statistics on it. That is, virtually all bets made on this site. With the ability to search in this array of events such as "the longest series <49.5%", etc.
Like betting, it’s very interesting for me to study the odds that were offered for matches already completed, but such information is practically not provided anywhere and I have to look for it in the archives.

That would be hella lot of work i shall say if we do consider on the current dice gambling sites here on this market and to say that maintaining the list or making it updated would really be just a hassle thing to be done
which  isnt really worth for the time and effort to be spent up for what? site traffic?
Gambling site reviews do particularly or commonly talks about in-depth experience together with UI/UX talks and other related stuffs and these are just common on the list this is why
people doesnt really bother it out.

[StephenJH]

The sorting feature which let the users find the specific gambling platform for the different needs. No need to look for the perfect gambling website that gives all necessary things in minimum amounts, we can easily transfer any amount to the different website instantly thanks to fast crypto transactions. Review authors should be chosen with qualifications and not everyone has to make an opinion based on personal experience.

[DoublerHunter]

^ Good features and legitimacy are the most reviewers commonly give a review.
We cant give full trust on any review services that the casino has because that probably will not true and have paid fake review of their own benefits and the fact is they are going stay activity like selectively scamming their player. Nevertheless, we have a forum and other gambling community that has an exchange of conversation. That is not manipulated if we check the review to forum community.

They really need to be unbiased otherwise all those reviews are going to be useless for us gamblers. And I think one way to be an effective reviewer is to really try to play on that gambling platform. It's hard to make a review if you yourself haven't experience it. Very easy for you to write the pros and the cons. I have a feeling that those who write reviews didn't get the experience first hand and they just copy other reviewers.

[ralle14]

Some screenshots of the games and notable features would be nice to see in reviews.There's not much interesting information to include other than daily stats similar to how dicesites track certain stats from popular casinos but that's going to take a lot of effort.

I have a feeling that those who write reviews didn't get the experience first hand and they just copy other reviewers.

I think the reason why some reviews might look like they're copied because they always mention the usual stuff we experience in casinos.

[Twinkledoe]

Also, if you can include if there are existing scam allegations or unresolved issues, along with the links discussing such outstanding issues. It will give the notion to players to check more of the site if they see there are existing issues and check the validity of the complaints.

[Yamifoud]

Only have two things I need to see...
1st is transparency( there is no need to hide bad claims/feedbacks) and the 2nd is the team must be responsive. Being unbiased will fuel doubts and uncertainty that brought a negative impact on returns.

The review must be clear enough and all the pros and cos must be read for all the readers. Negative feedback is normal knowing that we all can't be perfect that is why we seek feedback in order to correct it and become acceptable. Actually, there is no need to hide if you are doing good and for the intention not to trick people. We know how hard to gain trust we are just telling lies even though it was already been cleared to see.

[michellee]

Honest review, but I don't think that will be easy to find because I think the gambling site review can copy-paste from another gambling review site. They don't need to try to play on that site just to check the site so they can do a review. People will know if the gambling site review can give an honest review to them or not because people can find the other info from the other sources. If the site doesn't use KYC and allows the gambler to withdraw their money even for just small money, I am okay with that.

[TalkStar]

What will you find truly useful in such a review?

If your service is enough professional and transparent then i don't think you need to care about reviews whether its in favor of you or not. Let your platform users give their reviews by their own where your honest service will cover all fake negative reviews. Just not only in gambling site but also in google playstore apps you will see that some idiots give fake and negative reviews but i don't think anyone gonna waste their time by reading their baseless comments on review section.

I won't say that every negative review is baseless where some users negative reviews are important which actually give you the opportunity to identify the weaker point of your project. After being notified by their reviews you can easily make the list of things which you have to implement in the next update.  

[masulum]

1. The validity of the review is the first thing the user wants. We know many review websites (whatever they are) that now only thinking of their own benefits. Examples of ICO / IEO review websites that are no longer "neutral" in providing reviews.

2. UX and UI are the second factors that will be taken into consideration.

3. Does not need a lot of features, as long as the content provided is the truth, is enough.

4. Admin does not take advantage of giving a review or by pretending to give a positive review because the gambling owner pays. As @Yamifoud says, negative feedback is normal. No one business provider will always get positive feedback, so stay away from the paid review. You can make money in another way (if you want to build a review website).

5. Withdrawal process information (WD limit, KYC or anything related)

6. Accepted deposit (crypto/fiat/e-wallet)

7. Scam or legit tag in the title based on user review. Example: [SCAM] Thismycasino.com [WARNING] thismycasino.com, [LEGIT] thismycasino.com this is will help the user to know current status of gambling provider and will help you to gain users from search engine.

[Genemind]

I would like to see an honest review by real users, their experience even it's negative or not, of course with a response from the management itself to see how honest they respond to their users and how they plan to address negative feedbacks in their platform. Transparency from the team will assure users that the management is there to provide quality service.

Other features such as UI, the games, deposits, and withdrawals, etc. is workable, but how the management will address those points in their platform will determine how determined and dedicated the management is in delivering their service to their users.

[Debonaire217]

What particular review? video or text? If video, I want to see some penetration testing, it's kind of weird but for the sake of reviewing the security of the gambling site, a skilled ethical hacker might want to try to test if the gambling site could handle attacks and of course, the person reviewing should not expose the exploit if they find some, but just tell the viewers whenever there's a vulnerability in it, as well as report it to the website itself.

Though, stating pros and cons of the gambling site is enough already for people to play and enjoy the site.

[MCobian]

I want to see the bonus reviews given, currency options, payment methods, security, types of games available and users experience.
If all the reviews I mentioned are available it will make me and other users interested in playing gambling in your place. And don't let
you include reviews copy paste from other gambling sites, if this happens I make sure the reputation of your gambling sites will be
destroyed.

[Pamadar]

I want to see the bonus reviews given, currency options, payment methods, security, types of games available and users experience.

Those info surely brings readers attentions, if you can provide this inside your review sites, interest to play will be possible, 
it helps readers to understand what's the advantages
of the gambling site that you are featuring.

If all the reviews I mentioned are available it will make me and other users interested in playing gambling in your place.

Correct, after reading and learning all the features the next thing from readers/gamblers is to try it out and play the game.

And don't let you include reviews copy paste from other gambling sites, if this happens I make sure the reputation of your gambling sites will be
destroyed.

It's not a good practice to only copypaste others offers, best to be more creative to get more visitors.

[TGD]

Also, if you can include if there are existing scam allegations or unresolved issues, along with the links discussing such outstanding issues. It will give the notion to players to check more of the site if they see there are existing issues and check the validity of the complaints.

Yeah and this is the main used of review, to check whether the website is safe to play or not. The feature review is just next to it because are talking about here a casino rating and not some app. Most of the casino are using almost identical script so the gameplay is just same. They just changing the aesthetic design to fit on there website theme.

In addition to this fact statement. A good review on how customer support handle any issue in game will really made all readers to feel safe on playing on this casino.

[YOSHIE]

Hi there,

What do you want to see in a gambling site review?

The fact, if you are a diligent gambling addict, you surely know there are thousands of games/bets on gambling sites.

Maybe you have to determine and choose from the many sites that you need to use, no, wonder, since gambling sites appeared & until now, there is still more new, almost useless if gambling site reviews are published here, as I say every day continues to grow.

The best solution for you is; approach and read scientific reviews and choose a random gambling site, you will get information, advice, production, crypto etc., about gambling site reviews.
You really need a long time, for all that.
As; this initial research is very important.

[plvbob0070]

I don't specifically look for something when looking at a review. I'm just reading what gamblers have experienced and what they can say about the gambling site. I don't really explore many gambling sites, but when I try to look for a review, I tend to read a lot of insights to gather as much information that would satisfy me and convince me to try the site.

Also, it would be more honest if the reviews include a negative or something that they don't like about the site. But since not all reviews are honest, I don't just depend on gambling site online reviews when looking for a casino.

[FanEagle]

What will you find truly useful in such a review?

So far all review sites are works of individuals for providing reviews or it may be extended up to a team of gamblers but definitely not a community based. How about a gambling review site where I can make use of bitcointalk's rank and reputation to provide my experience happened in one particular gambling site?

I mean a community based gambling review site will be more exciting and more reliable. You may wonder why another one when are already having this forum. But, I guess if a dedicated site for reviews (about both positive and issues) will be too good to surf and find out new good sites and to enjoy their all offers without getting mislead by shills.

Already some gambling houses are offering in-house forum for their community; so this could be combination of bitcointalk+gambling forum. Anyone should be allowed to talk and to participate in a review discussion. I know it will be tons of work but when we need a perfect system, it will be possible only when we have strict regulations like how bitcointalk team do.
